The GEM PhD School: An Introduction

The Erasmus Mundus Joint Doctorate Programme on “Globalisation, the EU, and Multilateralism” (EMJD-‐GEM) is a five year programme set up with the support of the European Commission aimed at fostering first-‐rate doctoral research in Europe on the common challenges facing the current global system. The GEM PhD School was launched by a consortium of institutions, which have taken the lead in the fields of International Relations, Comparative Politics, European Integration Studies, Comparative Regional Cooperation Studies (ex. Mercosur, Asean, NAFTA, etc...) and Inter-‐regional Research (ex. ASEM, Rio process, EU-‐AU, ...etc). Its core objective is to offer a select group of top doctoral students from across the globe -‐ both within and beyond the European Union -‐ the means to accomplish their doctoral research and training. The GEM PhD School offers an innovative set of integrated learning tools -‐ shared training programs, supported international mobility, international seminars and joint workshops; and provides financial assistance, as well as a stable legal and administrative framework wherein to accomplish joint international research initiatives involving at least two partner institutions. The GEM PhD School’s programme will thus pioneer an integrated approach to doctoral teaching which will be reflected in the joint tutorship and double doctorates associated with those dissertations written within the programme’s framework. All its activities are thus geared towards: 1. Providing a set of top quality and multidisciplinary doctoral courses allowing for truly

pluralistic and comparative approaches to “Globalisation, the EU and Multilateralism”

2. Fuelling existing European Integration Research and strengthening the specific achievements accomplished within an ever stronger European Research Area

3. Guaranteeing continued excellence in education in a field of strategic importance for

Europe 4. Enhancing the profile and visibility of the European Union in the fields of International

Relations, other Social Sciences and Humanities; whilst highlighting the findings born from the vast and unique efforts deployed by European HEI’s in the field of EU studies.

The GEM PhD School: A Consortium of Leading Institutions

The GEM PhD School will offer a truly integrated doctoral programme of the highest academic quality which is to be founded upon a strong research backbone and well-‐established international outreach programmes.

Consortium Composition

European Partners Third Country Partners

All Doctoral Candidates will be employed by one of the EU-‐based Partners. Besides the partner institutions – which will welcome the affiliated doctoral students and will bestow the earned doctoral degrees – the GEM PhD School can also count on the participation and support from a series of highly valuable associated institutions, amongst which:

Associated Partners Name Faculty

Boston University

Boston, USA

Department of Political Science and International

Relations

ITAM Mexico City, Mexico

Departamento Académico de Ciencia

Política

UNU-CRIS Bruges, Belgium

Comparative Regional Integration Studies

All of these institutions have extensive networks within relevant research and doctoral training communities. All are recognized leaders – both nationally and internationally – within their fields. The GEM PhD School thus combines the necessary expertise to ensure: (i) the originality of its research; (ii) the scientific quality of the programme’s activities; and (iii) the international scope of its impact.

5

The GEM PhD School: An Extensive Mobility Programme

Besides their enrolment at the institution heading the research programme associated with the student’s research project, each enrolled doctoral student will be awarded a minimum of 6 months, and a maximum of one year, in visiting research fellowships at partner institutions. These mobility efforts must be motivated and justified by an underlying joint research project, and must be reflected in the student’s tutorship choices. All aspects of the program – its teaching, management, and mobility flows -‐ reflect the foundational research jointly accomplished within the network. Accordingly, they will be decided upon from the onset and are to be outlined in the students’ applications.

The GEM PhD School: An Integrated Teaching Programme

The full program contains the following educational modules, which the students can use to compile the necessary 180 ECTS for graduation: 1. The methodological courses (max. 15 ECTS), 2. A profiling block of 1st year elective topic-‐specific courses & seminars (max. 12 ECTS), 3. Common Group workshops within each Jointly Executed Research Project (6 ECTS), 4. A set of 2nd & 3rd year specializing courses, seminars, research or teaching activities (max. 15 ECTS), 5. Annual GARNET PhD seminars on “Global Governance, Regionalism, and the EU” (4-‐12 ECTS), 6. The obligatory Doctoral Dissertation (120 ECTS),

The GEM PhD School: A Three-‐Pronged Research Agenda

Three specific Jointly Executed Research Projects (JERPs) -‐ initiatives identified within the broader context of the GEM PhD School’s research agenda -‐ will offer the program its underlying backbone, and ensure that the programme combines both inter-‐disciplinary dialogue with more focussed analysis of a given dimension of the broad and complex phenomena at play within “Globalisation, the EU and Multilateralism”.

.

This three-‐pronged structure is the product of the available expertise within the consortium. Each doctoral candidate will be associated with one of the abovementioned research tracks and will spend at least their first year at the institution heading the chosen Jointly Executed Research Project.

These three component Joint Research Projects (JERPs) are: MORGANITE – headed by the IEE-‐ULB An Institution-‐centred research initiative focussed on assessing the efficiency, legitimacy, and tensions inherently associated with regional, interregional and global institutionalized multilateral cooperation efforts.

CITRINE – headed by the University of Warwick A concerted research initiative focused on analysing the implications of regulatory efforts associated with different articulations of multilateral order as they apply within and between models of national capitalisms, supranational governance dilemmas and global security concerns.

AMETRINE – headed by LUISS A coordinated research initiative focused on the normative components of European and international politics. It aims at comparatively examining European and non-‐European perspectives on issues of justice related to globalization and global politics.

The MORGANITE Research Project: The Specific Research Agenda

Over the past decades, both International Relations Theory, and European Integration Studies have been redrawn by major factual challenges and conceptual debates. These challenges have fostered a host of innovative avenues of enquiry within both of these research fields. This in turn has led to a dynamic interdisciplinary dialogue. As this new scientific agenda for the 21st century unfolds, parallel dynamics of cooperation and discord within the emerging new multipolar system; in conjunction with contrasting processes of convergence and fragmentation; have proven to be a fertile ground for methodological and conceptual innovations. Moreover, since the early 90’s international institutions have undergone something of a revival illustrated both by a major proliferation of regional initiatives as well as by a growing call for re-‐invigorated Global Governance mechanisms. This institutional effervesce did not however meet the growing “efficiency and legitimacy” challenges facing the multilevel global governance. Accordingly, in-‐depth exploration of multilateral and multilayered institutional dynamics – both in light of their inherent diversities, as well as their converging elements – has become a major research agenda within the social sciences. Pluralistic approaches to (neo-‐) institutionalism have thus come to offer the research community a rich analytical framework wherewith to broach a broad set of multilateral dynamics, both at the regional as well as global level. Transnational networks, ideas, interest representations, identities are components of this neo-‐institutional global research agenda. The MORGANITE Joint Research Project strives to study the institutional implications of the emerging multileveled multilateral global system. These institutional evolutions are to be assessed on the basis of both historical as well as topical perspectives, without neglecting key theoretical and methodological considerations. Above all, its research agenda is to be articulated around the abovementioned interdisciplinary dialogue between International Relations, on the one hand; and European Integration Studies, Comparative Regionalism and Interregional Analysis, on the other. Accordingly, the MORGANITE Joint Research Project will focus on the following research fields: (1) the factual and conceptual challenges which have coloured the disciplinary debates on Governance, Regulation, Institutional Cooperation, and Multilateralism, both within European Studies and International Relations; (2) the institutional implications of evolving regional, interregional, and global agendas; (3) and the growing interactions and mutual learning-‐processes emerging between these two levels of enquiry.

8

The MORGANITE Research Project: The Main Research Questions

A series of specific questions are to be addressed as the institutional dimension of the international system is analysed through a variety of approaches. The debates will focus on the nature of the different institutional actors, processes and settlements on the world stage. Furthermore, the theoretical issues born from the emerging tensions between the imperatives associated with national State sovereignty on the one hand; and supra-‐ or trans-‐national challenges or constraints, on the other; will form a recurring leitmotiv throughout the project’s agenda. While particular attention will be paid to the significance of the institutional debate within the European Union, the PhD School will also focus on other institutional arrangements -‐at the Global and Regional level-‐ which have come to face questions resulting from the evolving global system. MORGANITE will attach particular importance to evaluating, both through comparative analysis as well as interdisciplinary dialogue, too which extent the various existing institutional arrangements can contribute to the emergence and stabilisation of a legitimate and efficient multilateral and multi-‐levelled Global Governance system.

The MORGANITE Research Project: Sought after Doctoral Profiles

Key existing Global and regional institutions will be studied through their specificities; as well, as through their overall contribution to Global Governance. Accordingly, MORGANITE will sponsor a wide range of specific research initiatives within any of the following broad research themes: • Research Theme 1 Deepening the Interdisciplinary Theoretical Dialogue between EU Integration Studies & IR • Research Theme 2 Global & Regional Institutionalized Governance: Functional Evolutions Compared • Research Theme 3 Institutional Reform at the Global, Interregional, and Regional Levels Compared • Research Theme 4 Institutional Prospects: the Structural Challenges to their Efficiency & Legitimacy • Research Theme 5 International/ Regional Institutions and evolving State Sovereignty

The GEM-‐MORGANITE Fellowships: Erasmus Mundus Fellowships: An Overview

Each year the Commission sponsors a set number of 10 3-‐Year long Erasmus Mundus Fellowships. These fellowships are subdivided into two groups: Category “A” and Category “B” fellowships. Category A fellowships: Are to be awarded to doctoral candidates from all countries other than the 27 EU member states (or associated ones). However, to remain in category A doctoral candidates must not have been a resident, nor have carried out his/her main activity (studies, work, etc.), within the EU for more than 12 months over the last five years in one of these countries. Finally, those non-‐EU nationals having spend more then 12 months in Europe within the context of an Erasmus Mundus Master’s program (EMMC) will nevertheless remain in category A –as an exception to the previously cited rule. Category B fellowships: To be awarded to any doctorate candidate who does not fulfill the Category “A” criteria as defined above. Category “A” and “B” fellowships are identical except that the first are eligible to receive a total of €7500 for travel and the latter €3000. Beside their lump travel allowance, each fellowship is made up of two more components: operational funds and salary/stipend. Operational funding aim to cover a doctoral student's tuition fees and operational costs; whereas the salary/stipend funds are provided so as to assure all EM fellows enjoy an equitable and comfortable monthly allowance.

The Commission remains the ultimate arbiter regarding the attribution of the available fellowship funds. It fixes the exact number of scholarships in light of the submitted “academic selection” submitted by the consortium’s Board of Directors. Upon reception of said qualified list of selected applicants, the Commission proceeds with its own internal verification (at this stage, the process is purely formal and administrative in its appreciation of the submitted fellowship candidates; substantial vetting of the applicants is entirely left to the Board of Director’s initial “academic selection”). Upon completion of said final checks the commission confirms number and the list of awarded scholarships and invites the consortium to inform the happy candidates.
